Detailed Description
Hydrophilicand HydrophobicFumed Silica
Description
1, Fumed silica, also known as pyrogenic silica because it is produced in a flame, consists of microscopic droplets of amorphous silicafused into branched, chainlike, three-dimensional secondary particles which then agglomerate into tertiary particles. The resulting powder has an extremely low bulk density and high surface area. Its three-dimensional structure results in viscosity-increasing,thixotropic behavior when used as a thickener or reinforcing filler.
2, Fumed Silica divide into Hydrophilic fumed silica, hydrophobic fumed silica. Hydrophilic fumed silica is manufactured by hydrolysing volatile chlorosilanes in an oxyhydrogen flame. In chemical terms, the loose white powder consists of highly pure amorphous silicon dioxide. Hydrophilic silica is wetted by water and can be dispersed in water. Hydrophobic fumed silica is produced by the chemical modification of hydrophilic with reactive silanes, e.g. chlorosilanes or hexamethyldisilazane. It has water-repellent properties and is no longer dispersible in water.
Process
One production method for the production of fumed silica involved a continuous flame hydrolysis technique. It involves the conversion of silicon tetra chloride (SiCl4) to the gas phase using an oxy hydrogen flame. It then reacts with water to yield silica (SiO2) and hydrochloric acid thus:
